I opened a restaurant in ancient times

Chapter 9

After finishing the work in the field, Zhao Heng started to go to the town to set up a stall again.

In the past few days, he had been to the town several times, and he probably knew that people here prefer light food. He was going to make some good food for piggyback. You can also take it with you where you work. The dock usually doesn't care about meals.

There are a lot of portable food, steamed buns, steamed buns and biscuits, but most of the restaurants here are the most common way, far less diversified than modern food, Zhao Heng is very confident.

Hand cakes and pocket cakes are probably the most suitable for workers to eat in the morning and noon. They are convenient to make, and there is no problem with taking them with them. The important thing is to eat a large amount. People eat well and work harder.

After thinking about it, although Zhao Heng has confidence in his craftsmanship, it is better to let the locals here taste the taste that suits them. He opened the flour bag and lit the fire.

I was busy by the stove for a while and made some pancakes. These things are very simple, but unfortunately, the materials at home are not complete, and the original taste of the food cannot be brought out.

After a few days with the principal, you can buy all the ingredients to make more delicious cakes.

Zhao Heng used a sea bowl to put two finger cakes and two pocket cakes, and the other bowl was buckled on it to prevent mosquitoes from flying up. Before the heat subsided, he quickened his pace and walked towards Zhang Qiao's house.

Halfway through the road, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't returned the sickle and pole to Zhang Qiao. He couldn't help but hit himself on the head and said, "What kind of memory is this! I'll take the sickle and send it to

Zhang Qiao's house later!" The surrounding wall was short and could not hide Zhao Heng's figure. When Zhang Qiao saw him in the courtyard, he hurriedly opened the door and walked two steps in his direction to greet Zhao Heng.

"Why are you here, but what's the matter? Come in and talk." Zhang Qiao greeted Zhao Heng and walked into the door with him.

Zhao Heng smiled and said, "Thank you for taking care of me a few days ago. No, I made delicious food today. I came here to thank you and your grandmother.

" It's been a while!" Zhang Qiao scratched his head and smiled, "It's all from the neighbors, it's

nothing." After a few words, the two walked to the door of the main room of Zhang Qiao's house, and the wooden door looked at it. It looks worn out but not broken. It is the traces left on the wood by the years after using it for a long time. The condition of Zhang Qiao's home is not very good.

When Zhang Qiao's younger brother was seven or eight years old, he was sent to study medicine with a doctor, so he emptied his family savings, and the apprentice had to pay tribute to the master.

Aunt Zhang felt sorry for him, and he secretly gave him some money when he left with his master. After visiting the master, he had to wait until he left before returning. Besides, his master took him on a tour a few years ago, and a letter came a few days ago that he was going home after the autumn harvest.

"Aunt Zhang, see what I brought for you?" Zhao Heng smiled and called Aunt Zhang, who was sitting in the main room busy with sewing: "A few days ago, I said I wanted to bring delicious food to my aunt, and I came right after I was done."

Seeing Zhao Heng coming to the house, Aunt Zhang was busy putting down the needlework she was busy with. The needle was tied to the thread and put into the basket along with the sole of the shoe.

"I'm so embarrassed to let you, this young generation, cook for food..." He said this, but there was a smile on his face, and this young generation also had a heart.

If it weren't for such a sudden situation, how could a young man be able to cook? Although he brought spicy fish last time, it tasted good, but this age is just right, and ordinary men have never seen it before. There will be cooking!

The last time I couldn't be sure that it was because of the thing called chili that made things, but it was just a mistake.

Aunt Zhang secretly made up her mind that this time, no matter how bad Zhao Heng's cooking was, she would say it was delicious. You can't ruin your neighbor's friendship because of such trivial things.

Taking the sea bowl from Zhao Heng's hand and placing it on the table, Zhang Qiao pulled the stool and motioned for Zhao Heng to sit down and speak.

Zhao Heng sat on the stool after seeing Aunt Zhang sitting down. Several people sat together and laughed.

"Auntie, I'm going to the town to sell food in a few days. Do you want to try this? If it's sold in the town, can someone buy it?" Zhao Heng stretched out his hand and lifted the sea bowl covered on the table.

A strong fragrance wafted out, and Zhang Qiao and Aunt Zhang couldn't help but turn their eyes to the pancake.

"What kind of food is this? I've never seen anything like this before." Zhang Qiao saw that he had never seen two kinds of pancakes in the bowl before, so he was a little puzzled, and then he thought about it and said, "Could it be you? What did you eat in your hometown?"

Zhao Heng nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, it's not."

"Oh? How do you say?"

"There used to be this kind of food in my hometown, but it's not as good as this one. These are from a passing hustle. Shang Na learned that when the Hu people were injured and cultivated in my home, they told me what to do in order to repay my family's kindness. I didn't do it before, but now it's when it's time to spend money. And the one who sells people." He

knew that someone would ask this, and Zhao Heng had already thought of a countermeasure. In my memory, there are similar foods in Liyang City, but they are not as delicious as these, so using the toll Hushang as an excuse is just right. Who knows that this Hushang is just a character made up by him? Zhang Qiao

nodded: "This food smells so good. It turned out to be made by Hu people. No wonder I haven't seen it before.

"

As soon as he took a bite, the crispy crust made a "squeak", Zhang Qiao tasted the taste in his mouth, and couldn't help but take another gulp.

This cake was so delicious that he couldn't hold back one bite after another. When he realized that, the cake in his hand had already been eaten.

It was only then that Zhang Qiao realized that he had lost his manners in front of Zhao Heng, and his face flushed red. Growing up, he has never done such a shameful thing in front of outsiders, and he has eaten so cleanly before the guests leave. Even the spicy fish that Zhao Heng sent last time never made him lose his temper like this.

Aunt Zhang patted Zhang Qiao's arm: "You child! Why do you eat like this?" She thought to herself, could it be that she misunderstood that she was born later? My son eats so fragrantly, the taste of this cake is definitely not bad.

Zhang Qiao quickly explained: "Mum, it's not my fault, but Zhao Heng for making this cake so delicious that I can't stop!"

Aunt Zhang wanted to say something, but heard Zhao Heng say : "Auntie, try it too." Aunt

Zhang hesitated for a while, then nodded: "Okay, you also have a heart."

Seeing that her son's food was so delicious, Aunt Zhang reached out and took another pocket cake.

Looking at the cake outside, it looked like a butter cake, with some vegetable leaves and carrots in it. Take a bite, and the rich sauce bursts out in your mouth, and the taste is very good.

Amu Zhang was at the guest's house. She didn't lose face like her son did. She just tasted a few bites and put it down: "If this cake can really be sold in the town, someone must have bought it!"

"That's right! That's right! The pancakes are so delicious, if I worked at the dock, I would definitely not be reluctant to pay a few cents to buy such good food!" Zhang Qiao quickly echoed.

Zhao Heng got their affirmative answer, and immediately put down his heart: "I'm relieved to hear what you said. I was a little worried that no one would buy it." The only thing left was to go to the government office to pay for the rental of the stall.

After coming out of Zhang Qiao's house, Zhao Heng went home and took the sickle back to Zhang Qiao's house. Thanks to their help these days, otherwise he would be alone, and he didn't know how long he would have to work to settle down in Dahe Village.

In the afternoon, Zhao Heng took the money and went to town. If he was going to set up a stall in a few days, he had to go to the government office in advance.

When he got to the town, Zhao Heng turned left and right, and asked a lot of people to find the way to the government office.

On the way to the government office, when Zhao Heng passed a shop, he saw Jiang Yuan being driven out.

Zhao Heng stopped and looked up at the sign of the shop, Huichun Hall?

Hospital? Why does the hospital have to kick people out?

An apprentice in the medical center was pushing Jiang Yuan. Seeing that Jiang Yuan was about to be pushed to the ground, Zhao Heng immediately stepped forward to support Jiang Yuan and turned to the apprentice, "What are you doing!"

The apprentice was stunned for a moment. Immediately annoyed: "It's none of your business! Don't meddle in your own business here!"

This apprentice is a relative of the owner of the medical center, so he often bullies people in the medical center based on this relationship, except for the boss and other people in the medical center. It's always just being bullied.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Heng turned around and asked Jiang Yuan behind him.

Jiang Yuan stretched his arms around his back basket, and sorted out the contents with one hand. Hearing this, he said, "I found some medicinal materials in the mountains. Thinking that this might be collected by the medical center, I came to Huichun Hall to sell medicinal materials. People said that they didn't accept medicinal materials of unknown origin, so they kicked me out."

"There is such a thing?" Zhao Heng frowned. Dahe Village is backed by green mountains, and there are naturally many rare treasures in the mountains. , but they are all in the deep mountains, and ordinary villagers do not dare to go in because they are afraid that wild animals will hurt people's lives.

It's just that the apprentices of this medical center are too bullying. If they don't accept the medicinal materials, they won't accept them.

Zhao Heng was about to come forward and reason, but Jiang Yuan behind him grabbed the corner of his clothes: "Forget it, Huichuntang is the largest medical center in the town, so don't offend easily."

The apprentice sneered when he heard this, and said: "You know each other! Since you know that our Huichuntang is the biggest and best medical center, if you apologize to me in front of so many people today, I will spare you with kindness."

A group of people had already gathered next to them. Now the few people in front of them are discussing in a low voice: "Why does Huichuntang bully people so much! It's not easy for my little brother to pick up medicinal herbs..."

"That's right, I see, when Huichuntang grows bigger, it will look down on us ordinary people. No! In the future, we will only give medical treatment to rich and noble families, and the lives of our little people are worthless in their eyes..."

The apprentice was even more angry when he heard what someone whispered, and shouted angrily: "That's you guys. I can't afford the money to see a doctor! I can't blame others!"
